A new era in modern dentistry has emerged where tooth loss is no longer an issue as a result of rapid advancements in implantation and alveolar ridge reconstruction. Despite its wide range of indications, autotransplantation is dependent upon careful patient selection and a suitable technique to ensure successful results both functionally and aesthetically. It is possible to restore physiological occlusion, aesthetics, and masticatory function by varying implant length, diameter, surface, and design, along with autogenous, alogenous, alloplastic, or xenogenous bone substitutes. However, none of the technologies that are used in implant dentistry today can adapt to a child's growing jaw during adolescence. Thus, the young age of the patient restricts implants and creates a challenge for dentists wishing to replace missing teeth. Therefore, tooth autotransplantation can be a good option for treatment. Our objective in this review is to highlight the biological principles required for the successful autotransplantation of teeth. Limits, indications, and prognoses will be analyzed. Hopefully, with increased awareness and acceptance in the dental profession, autotransplantation will become another viable treatment option for those with compromised teeth who still have significant growth potential.
现代牙科的一个新时代已经出现，由于种植牙和牙槽嵴重建技术的迅速发展，牙齿缺失不再是一个问题。尽管自体移植有广泛的适应症，但它依赖于仔细的患者选择和合适的技术，以确保在功能和美观方面都能取得成功的结果。通过改变种植体的长度、直径、表面和设计，以及自体、异体、人工合成或异种骨替代物，可以恢复生理咬合、美观和咀嚼功能。然而，当今种植牙科所使用的任何技术都无法适应青少年时期儿童颌骨的生长。因此，患者的年轻年龄限制了种植牙的使用，并给希望替换缺失牙齿的牙医带来了挑战。因此，牙齿自体移植可能是一种很好的治疗选择。我们这篇综述的目的是强调牙齿成功自体移植所需的生物学原理。将分析其局限性、适应症和预后。希望随着牙科行业对其认识和接受度的提高，自体移植将成为那些牙齿受损但仍有显著生长潜力的患者的另一种可行治疗选择。
